By the way, I dont think anyone is doing that great this year. The top traders made little over $2M last couple years...but I think they might be up maybe +$500,000 or so this year so far...not on par with last year...I can't be 100% sure, however... Maybe Hitman or I Missed The Boat can shed some light into the subject. Since Hitman is a Group Leader, he should have access to those numbers.

That's about $363K Sterling/Englis Pounds * 1.3 = $471K USD
So, it seems like some of the traders at Worldco or Bright made $2M last year or something? Much better than these gus!
LOL!
